Abstract

The application of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to facilitate the aggregation of ceramic particles (proppants) by embedding in the coating through localized microwave heating is reported. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) along with energy dispersive X-ra...
